Walnuts


If you're going to be incoporating more vegetarian meals into your diet, it's a good idea to be conscious of including non-animal derived sources of protein into what you're eating. Eating nuts and nut butters (the more natural, the better - regular peanut butter is full of hydrogenated oil and sugar) is a great way to incorporate more healthy protein into your diet.


I added raw walnuts to the spinach salad below, because I've been reading lately about how great they are for you. They're full of Omega-3 fatty acids, which we could all use more of. If you're interested, this article has a ton of reasons to eat more walnuts...
